Congratulation, peoples verdict is pronounced, loud and clear. People's determination was mighty in favor of change. Change, which will make their dream come true. Bangladesh Awami League must take this challenge of change with maximum passion, sincerity, genuineness, honesty and extreme seriousness and most importantly with great humbleness. More often than not, party that looses election does the sole search to find the root cause of their failure. However, this time the winner has to do the sole search to have a comprehensive realization with an unprecedented landslide victory in their hand. I earnestly hope Bangladesh Awami League will truly grasp the very reason of their unparallel extraordinary victory and work toward to achieve the towering goal people have set for them. The comparison of election result of 1991, 1996 and 2001 beyond doubt not applicable to this year 2008 election. Avalanche election result of 29 December of 2008 is more of what the nation has observed once before with unparalleled peoples verdict of 1970 election. Similar to 1970, this year election, it was more of a referendum then ordinary election that has meager win or loose. Peoples decree of 1970 general election held on December 7 of 1970 and provincial assemble election which took place on 17 December of 1970 was unmistakable unambiguous. Result was overwhelmingly unequivocally of ending the oppression and tyranny of Pakistani junta. People's aspiration for their autonomy and liberty reflected through the victory of Bangabandhu and Bangladesh Awami League, Nouka (Boat) become the symbol of their freedom. Jingle of liberation become the mantra of peoples verdict. Referendum (Election) of 1970 gave us a country, a flag, an anthem to sing and a constitution to follow, all of which tormented in the hands of anti liberation forces led by four party alliances. People gave another verdict on December 29 to bring the lost glory back, establish the vision of liberation, and to establish Bangabandhu's Shonar Bangla. Once again, after 38 years later in another December Nouka (boat) and Bangladesh Awami League become the symbol of liberation. Liberation from oppressive Jamat-BNP four party alliances misrule. Resurrection of defeated anti liberation forces under direct supervision of BNP led alliance government. Unfortunately supporting terrorist fundamentalist groups who sell Islam the religion of peace for their skimpy political gain become Khaleda Zia's political asset. Oppression, injustice, unequal treatment, overwhelming corruption, absolute failure of running the government for the people become the norm of the day. Now people have spoken firmly once again and everyone must take note of that. People's verdict was genuine reflection of their aspiration to run the country under Bangladesh Awami Leagues stewardship to free them. It is not just an ordinary victory but also a clear mandate to liberate them from poverty, corruption, nepotism, anti liberation forces, miscreants of muscle power, black marketers and wholesome misuse and misrule of power. During every single election campaign meeting Sheikh Hasina encouraged people to give another mandate to Awami League similar to one they delivered in 1970. She said "we achieved our independence in this month of December, let us have another victory in this month of triumph", citizens answered confidently and they gave more then what she asked for, now it is Bangladesh Awami Leagues turn to upheld their dream and complete the unfinished call of –Dittio Biplob- of our great leader Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Being the daughter of Bangabandhu, the father of the nation you must do what he could have done but could not do because of his martyrdom. I do rest my complete faith upon you and hope Bangladesh Awami League will not fail to comply with people's aspiration. We will not ask you for anything but we will walk with you to make success of your program of "Din Bodoler Ishtahar".–This victory is not about Awami League or Mohajoth BUT this victory is all about people and only people and Bangladesh Awami League must remind them selves everyday every time they make a public decision. Awami League must upheld and be vocal to establish human right (right to food, work, health, education and housing) trial of murderous war criminals, corruption free society, fiscal emancipation, institutionalization of democracy, giving all out institutional support to farmers and establishing the right of fisherman to water (Jol Jar Jola Tar), truthful liberation of judicial system, freedom of speech and expression, especially press, right to information, emancipation and empowerment of women's right, enrolling young generation into your vision of 2021 of digital Bangladesh all of which can come true with little sacrifice, right planning and sincere implementation. Right planning and sincere implementation can be done only with honest competent brilliancy. Awami League must find its way to contain its victory and go forward with great self-humiliating humbleness. Vigilance is the eternal price of liberty. People of People's confidence and faith upon Bangladesh Awami League and its leadership must not be forgotten. Having this mandate in their shoulder, Bangladesh Awami League must act with humility and gratitude, ask not what they can have but mull over what they can deliver for the people of Congratulation to people of Yours truly, Shamim Chowdhury Activist, |
